Genesys (FFG RPG) work in progress

[sevrick]

Oh, is there a trick for the GM hiding dice rolls, or does that still need to be added in. Right now I can only hide percentage rolls, but my players see all my narrative dice rolls regardless of the setting.

(hell if it's not a feature, but there's a mod that might help, like something that hides ALL GM rolls, that would be appreciated)

In the settings you should be able enable the gm tower. Although I am not sure if it works with this ruleset or not. The way its supposed to work is you drag the dice onto it.

Other than that I think I saw an eye icon near the chat window that might work.

GMs can hide dice rolls clicking the small "eye" icon in the Genesys dicebox below the chat window.
I believe there could be an issue with FG Unity not working with that, so I will investigate today!

EDIT: Yes I found the issue with the die rolls showing even when the GM selected to hide them.
I will fix this soon

P.S.: Even if you are using Star Wars, download the above file as it will fix the issue in Star Wars ruleset too!

P.S.2: The option to show/hide GM die rolls can be toggled from the Dicebox below the chat window, clicking the small "eye" icon.
That option will be remembered by the ruleset, next time you open your campaign.

There is a weird bug with the skills. There is a box with no label and apparently copies what is entered there into the place where you enter the name of the skill. It seems rather redundant.

ahhh Good catch!

Small quality of life improvement I think would help, under the actions tab where the weapons are you have the stats for damage, critical, and range but there's no reference text above denoting what each column stands for. It might be nice for newer players to have the columns labeled for damage, crit, & range as an easy reference.

Also for something down the road it would be nice to have a spot to drop some boost and/or setback dice next to some equipment that adds to the dice pool automatically when attacking with that weapon. Or having an automation field on an item itself using the special character codes or something that applies those dice to the pool when using the item. Like if you have a Balanced Hilt knife it would have a section in the item field where you add [B] and it automatically adds a boost die when attacking with that weapon. Some will need to be done manually like a scope but some add blanket bonuses regardless of range or other factors.

Oh yes I forgot to add that in this release, I will add soon, it is on my todo list here for the next one.

I will also soon add a much requested feature, a way to add more dice to the weapon rolls, so you dont have to add dice each time (for example, adding dice related to talents, difficulty etca)

I know it's extra but I did have an idea about cybernetics. You could add a category in the inventory tab, after the Equipment tab but before vehicles, a Cybernetics tab. Where your applied Cybernetics. You could even add a number to show you how many Cybernetics are left available for your character. I know that for the most part the max is equal to your brawn, Ganks and Cyber Tech being the exceptions.

Hello,

First of all, thank you for your great work, i've been lurking it since day one and what you have done, both Johniba and Sevrick is off the charts.
I've been a long time Star Wars pen & paper player, then Roll20.

I am now in the process of adapting a Shadowrun setting to Genesys, using your ruleset, and I am going to have a test run soon.
What made me go " faster " on the idea, is the Setting field you are about to implement.

I already use the field for the stuff I create, do you think it will "adapt" once the full Setting feature is released?

Also, when I, as a GM, miss click and add a Story point, the only way to remove it is to clear the pile? Or did I miss anything?

And one last thing, one thing useful for the GM in Roll20 was the ability for the GM to add difficulty dices to the player.
Do you think it could be achieved through the Dicepool tracker you added? I am not Requesting to add the possibility, just to know if you think this could be a thing.

Once again Thanks a lot to all of you !
